A FATAL ENDING.
A Georgian Family Feud Ends in a Double

A Georgian Family Feud Ends in a Double
Tragedy.
GRIFFIN, Ga, Oct. 12.-Information of
the bloody ending of family feud of long
standing has just reached here. In the
northwestern part of Monroe County,
near the Spalding line. the Hands and
Coins live. They are both families of in
fuence and responsibility. For long
years they lived peaceably together in
a neighborly sort of way. Several
years ago some local matter caused an es-
trangment between the family. This
feeling was nursed until intense hatred
existed between the members of each
family. Sunday afternoon, A. J. Coin
and w. Hand, while going along the pub
lie road, met each other face to face.
Some words passed between them. Tho
bad feeling soon asserted itself, and in .
few minutes both parties had drawn
their pistols and begun firing at each
other. Hand received a pistol ball in his
right shout der and in the left side of his
abdomen. Coin was shot in or near the
center of the abdomen. After Coin had
been shot and having put two bullets into
the body Of Hand, he took step further
and sent another ball crushing through
Hands head, killing him nstantly. Coin
is not yet dead, but his wound is consid-
cred fatal.

Desperate Condition Of the Crown Prince.
NEW YORK, Oct. 1.-THE Worlds Berlin
special says: The latest reports regarding
the condition of the Crown Prince are
very disquieting. There is no doubt that
the canoerous growth, destroyed tenn.
porarily by the severe cauterization to
which DR.. Mackenzie subjected his patient
has now reappeared with greater viru-
lence than ever. Even the court papers
speak of his condition as being very
grave, and much regret is expressed on all
sides that he did not continue his journey
further southwark instead of stopping at
Tolbach, where the weather during por-
ton of his stay was intensely cold. The
Princes physical condition is so com.
pletely run down that he is utterly in
capable of undergoing another course Of
caustic applications, and his present
treatment consists merely of inhalations
of bismuth for alternating the pain. The
receipt Of this news created great sem
sation, and on every side are heard ex.
pressions of sympathy for "Unser Fritz"
and the Crown Princess, who, it is gener-
ally feared will soon become widow.

REMOVING VARNiSH.
How It May b Q Easily Done Without In
Jury to Paintings.

How It May b Easily Done Without In
jury to Paintings.
Eyes. varnish can be removed from
oil paintings without injuring the
sketch, but it is a difficult job" said a
Fifteenth street expert on paintings to
a reporter.
'Well, how do you go about itP''
ITO begin with, every thing depends
on the varnish used originally on the
picture. If it is permanent then it's
removal is absolutely necessary, but if
retouching varnish has been made use
of there remains nothing but to paint
over it, which may be done without
fear of injuring the picture.
"How would you remove this per-
manent varnish?''
"a wooden box. the size of q
stretcher must be procured, and in
this I would place the picture face
up. This receptacle is to be shallow
of course, say from three to five
inches in depth. according to the
thickness of the stretcher. Its lid
must fit closely, and before placed in
position a lining of cotton batting,
saturated with alcohol, should be at
tached Then, after putting in the
picture, should nail down the cover,
and the varnish will soon be dissolved
by the fumes from the alcohol.
"How long would you have the
picture in this positionP"
THAT is determined only by expert
ence. and to novices the above expe-
riment is sometimes costly, for the
greatest care must be exercised in
Judging the length of time necessary
to remove the varnish. If left exposed
too long the painting itself will be in
jured by the alcohol. If the painting
is valuable, wouldn't advise an mex
perienced person to try this arrange
ment, unless under the personal super
vision of an expert-N Y Mail and

FOB OUR YOUNG FOLKS.
ADVICE FOR YOU.

I have some good advice for you,
Ny merry little man,
IT'S this: where'er your lot Is caSS
o, do the best you can!
And find the good in every thing.
No matter what or where;
And don't be always looking for
The hardest things to bear.
O, do not stand with idle hands,
And wait for something grand,
While precious moments slip away
Like grains OF shining sandl
But do the duty nearest you,
And do it faithfully,
For stepping stones to greater things
These little deeds shall be.
In this big world Of ours, my boy,
There's work for all to do,
Just measure by the golden rule
That which is set for you;
And try it with the square Of truth,
And with the line of right;
In every act and thought Of yours,
Oh, keep your honor bright!

The Red River Railroad Scheme r ais
Through.

WINNIPEG, Man., Oct. 1.-THE Red
River railroad scheme has practically
fallen through for this season, owing to
the fact that the necessary funds are not
forthcoming. 1t is likely, however, that
the plans will be revived with interest
shortly on account Of the immense wheat
crop ready for expectation. 1t is rumored
that the Canadian Pacific will be unable
to handle all of it. It is also claimed that
tho recent reductions in rates by the Can.
adam Pacific between Manitoba ports and
Port Arthur are neutralized by Increased
rates from Port Arthur eastward. Every
effort will be made to secure the new rail.
road. The local government, it is gen.
Tally believed, will appeal to the people
or will attempt some political coup d'etat
Taking it all in all, however, the outlook
Tor Manitoba at present is not reassurinx.
